The food delivery startup is planning to use a major chunk of fundings for the improvement of technology to serve the customers better and apart from this, the company is also planning to expand their business in different areas of Bengaluru and Hyderabad.

Cookaroo that works on the same model as OYO Rooms was founded last year. It is known for delivering freshly prepared meals from commercial kitchens. Across Bengaluru, the food delivery startup has 15 operational commercial kitchens and processes around 200 orders.
